High-impact Sound in a Compact Powered Speaker
Fueled by 1,000 watts of Class D power, the Yamaha DHR15 packs a high-impact sound that belies its compact size. This outstanding powered PA speaker features a high-compliance, low-frequency 15-inch driver and a 1.4-inch high-frequency compression driver, which exhibit a full-range 44Hz–20kHz frequency response and an impressive 131dB maximum SPL. Your entire audience will experience consistent sound, thanks to the DHR15's 90-degree by 60-degree coverage angle, while 48-bit DSP and Yamaha's acclaimed D-Contour intelligent multiband compressor assure minimal crossover distortion and predictable sonic performance at any volume. This active loudspeaker also includes flexible FOH/Main and Monitor operational modes. The DHR15 boasts a rugged polyurea-coated compact plywood enclosure and a 35mm socket for effortless placement on a stand or pole.

Clear voice reproduction and extreme musicality
Despite its compact, portable form factor, the DHR15 packs quite a wallop. This active loudspeaker pumps 1,000 watts of Class D power through a high-compliance 15-inch low-frequency driver and a 1.4-inch high-frequency compression driver. No matter your application, the DHR15 will exceed all expectations with a full-range 44Hz–20kHz frequency response and a rafter-shaking 131dB of maximum SPL. What's more, its 90-degree by 60-degree coverage angle ensures that every seat experiences consistent — and amazing — sound.
Full and detailed imaging from advanced FIR-X tuning
Many loudspeakers exhibit a loss of clarity and/or volume in frequencies near their crossover points, but the Yamaha DHR15 maintains clear sound thanks to advanced FIR-X crossover tuning. Utilizing ultra-precise 48-bit DSP, FIR-X optimizes frequencies and phase relationships to practically eliminate crossover distortion. The result is a smooth, balanced response around the crossover frequencies and a better-sounding performance overall.
Consistent clarity and balance at any volume
While any loudspeaker's tonal balance can vary depending on its output level, the DHR15 features Yamaha's D-Contour intelligent multiband compressor to maintain its sonic integrity at any volume. D-Contour constantly monitors multiple frequency bands and makes real-time adjustments to keep the balance consistent — it won't mess with your mix; it just ensures your mix stays the same at any volume level. And live sound engineers at Sweetwater appreciate the flexibility to choose from two operational modes (FOH/Main or Monitor) to optimize the frequency balance depending on your application.
